Answer to Question 1

A
Because of their emphasis on body image, teens are at particular risk for feelings of disturbed body image, which may lead to serious health concerns such as anorexia nervosa and bulimia nervosa.

Answer to Question 2

C
Safety is of primary concern when caring for neonates because neonates are totally dependent on others to meet their needs. Accidents are the primary cause of neonatal mortality. One of the most important neonatal accident prevention methods is to teach parents about the use of infant car seats.
